Great video Richard and a vast collection. I'm sure it will achieve good prices in the current market. Probably one of the best known industrialists at the time was of course Matthew Boulton who needs to be remembered as being responsible for the private token production, struck on behalf of merchants, at his Soho "Manufactory" in the city of Birmingham. An excellent reference work has been produced by Sue Tungate, quite recently in 2020, called "Copper to Customer" which mentions the Parys Copper Mine in Anglesey to which you refer. Thomas Williams was influential to Boulton's entry into coining and, as you quite rightly say, "WE PROMISE TO PAY THE BEARER" was a very popular inscription. The Anglesey or 'druid' tokens were the first and the most common by far. I shall be watching the sales.
Boldwin coins and Stanley Gibbons have a great reputation I personally respect the reputation of both of these Stanley Gibbons and Baldwin
Recently came to your shop in London! Bought 2 crowns!
So interesting, got a few tokens in my collection, i should start looking into them ❤
stunley Gibbons buying back the Ghana stamp for £8 million pounds was a great deal Considering what the stamp was sold previously for £18 million the weight of this stamp In grams It's quite valuable Ghana stamp Especially when rest of the Ghana stamps will never appear most likely destroyed. With the weight of these tokens And having 4 missing tokens is not a complete set It makes you wonder they must have been in some kind of fire For the 4 missing in In the collection. Just think swapping for the 1943-D Brass Abraham Lincoln one wheat cent made from copper that's not sticking to a magnets plus 3.1 g On a weighing scale good security. Well good luck if you get more than 2 million dollars full lots of tokenism
Also bringing the 1943-D brass Abraham Lincoln one wheat cent made from copper that will not be not sticking to a magnets
I think everybody will be presuming that you are selling the whole full lots of tokens Altogether It makes you wonder the winning bid how they will be collecting tokens and the taxpayer billing the security interestingly looking forward of outcome of the sales
Good subject and great video and lots of information it's a bit like now With king Charles III
I am willing to swap for the those tokens with a 1943-D Brass Abraham Lincoln one wheat cent made from copper that's not sticking to a magnets.
Hellooo sir. How can we contact you about the coins ?
Well it's all about the condition of the coins. The 1943-D Brass Abraham Lincoln one wheat cent that was sold 2016 year in was not good condition considering my 1943-D Brass Abraham Lincoln one wheat cent made from copper Is weight distribution of the copper coin 3.1 g
